Because of the existing and increasing possibility
of the occurrence of disasters of unprecedented size and destructiveness
resulting from enemy attack, sabotage or other hostile action, or
from fire, flood, earthquakes or other natural causes, and in order
to ensure that preparations of the Township will be adequate to deal
with such disasters, and generally to provide for the common defense
and to protect the public peace, health and safety, and to preserve
the lives and property of the people of this Township, it is hereby
found and declared to be necessary to recreate a Township Emergency
Management Agency to provide for the rendering of mutual aid to other
municipalities within the State of New Jersey and those adjoining
states and to cooperate with the state government with respect to
carrying out emergency management functions.
It shall be the duty of the organization for
emergency management, established pursuant to this article, and of
the officers thereof, to execute and enforce such orders, rules and
regulations, as may be made by the Chairman of the Township Committee
under authority of this article. Such organization shall have available
for inspection at its office all orders, rules, and regulations made
by the Chairman of the Township Committee, or under his authority.
